Well… I know spring has arrived when tiny, little ants march in to my home via my kitchen sliding doors and begin systematically carrying out crumbs.
Ugh, every spring, same story…
I’m told they’re Ghost Ants which I guess are better than big, giant ass ants LOL!
As much as I love all creatures big and small, GAMES ON with insects! I don’t like them (except for a few varieties, find out which ones on the Meet Lisa page).
Honestly, I’m amazed that those little ants find anything to confiscate in my kitchen these days… did you know that I have in my possession the best vacuum in the world… an adorable and very hungry mini pig named Oscar. Somehow my Oscar must have missed the teensy crumbs!
As An Herbalist And Priestess I Believe In The Power Of Nature To Heal and Nourish
And because of my belief in the miraculous healing power of Gaia, I make my own medicine, lotions and potions using her gifts, rather than purchase chemical and pesticide laden products from stores.

The truth is that we live in a toxic world… but I made a promise to myself years ago that I would try and minimize the insult to my body temple as much as possible. That’s why I made Natural Ant Repellant Spray with essential oils. It works like a charm because the ants will avoid peppermint at all costs!
The downside is that you must respray often, the upshot is that this is completely natural, your house smells absolutely divine and you’ll have a shit ton of energy!
Natural Ant Repellent Recipe
Ingredients:
Pinch of salt
5 drops Peppermint essential oil
5 drops Spearmint essential oil
5 drops Lemon or Citronella essential oil
1 cup distilled water
Instructions:
- Add the salt to a glass spray bottle (I use a stainless steel bottle with a spray top).
- Add the Peppermint, Spearmint, and Lemon or Citronella essential oil.
- Add distilled water to the bottle and shake to combine.
- Spray along the baseboards and entrances where ants may enter the home.
Notes:
Always spot test in areas to make sure no discoloration occurs on wood, carpet, and other surfaces. I sprayed around on a tile floor, so I didn’t have any issues, however… it’s better to make sure and do a test since all surfaces are different.
Pah-Leez Be Sure To Use Top Quality Essential Oils!
Most of the essential oils you find in drugstores and food markets are not of a high quality and should not be ingested, diffused or put on your body temple. Your skin is the largest organ in your body and you ingest approximately 60% of everything you rub on it!
